What’s interesting about this announcement is that Daniel Bryan is scheduled to take on The Miz. It’s been rumored that Bryan still hasn’t re-signed with the WWE, but with announcements like this, along with WWE 2K19’s story mode revolving around the GOAT, it looks like Bryan isn’t going anywhere after all.
